Pop and metal, combined into one genre-bending whirlwind. Welcome to Pop Goes Metal. We do exactly what we say on the tin: turn pop songs into metal bangers. We’re talking Call Me Maybe, Pokerface, Mamma Mia and many, many more! Fronted by Emily Smurthwaite of Beatherder festival fame, you can expect raw, powerful vocals delivered over a background of thick, distorted guitars and bass, and heavy, groovy drums.
If you’re a fan of both pop and metal (come on we know you guys exist), or even just one or the other, we think you’ll like this. No, actually, we think you’ll LOVE it!
Introducing TAME THE SAVAGE! The band that injects old school metal into the carnage of the battlefield. Expect tales of bloody battles, lost glories and TANKS, delivered with a thumping wall of sound. No one is safe, nothing is untameable, everything is savage!
Bringing you all the best emo/alternative anthems, we bring you Prettyhandsomeawkward! A local cover band churning out some of your favourite hits to a professional standard. Come experience a night of nostalgia and adrenaline!(Ps bring your best dance shoes)
£9 advance / £ 12 on the door
